Arcane Ballista

You create five crimson bolts of guided arcane energy that locks on to foes. Each bolt targets a creature or object of your choice that you can see within range, striking simultaneously. You can choose to split these bolts between many targets or focus them on one target. A single bolt deals 2d6+1 Force damage to its target, flying around all cover and obstacles and perfectly hitting it unless negated by a Shield spell, which absorbs the bolt entirely.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th level or higher, you create one additional bolt for each slot level above 5th.
